Description: The restaurant, formerly a residence, was built in 1910. It features hardwood floors, 12' ft ceilings, and 5 fine dining rooms, three with fireplaces. We have a full selection of spirits and over 20 selections of wine. We also have a patio that seats 25 guests. We host weddings, rehearsal dinners, showers and parties. When you dine with us, we want you to have a dining experience rather than the typical restaurant that tries to turn tables as quickly as possible. We serve each course separately allowing you to relax, take in the ambiance, enjoy a glass of wine and savor every bite of Italian cuisine. When you leave our restaurant, we want you to remember what it's like to slow down, enjoy one another's company and realize how nice and relaxing dining can be. If you have other plans after dining with us, inform your server upon arrival and we can speed up your service. Dress is casual and reservations are recommended during the week and especially on the weekends.

We saw this restaurant on Tennessee Crossroads and decided to make the trip from Nashville. It was worth it! Nice easy Saturday afternoon drive for some delicious food! The lasagna and chicken Mauricio were both great. Our friends got filets and loved them. We'll go back!

We have known about this restaurant for 2 years. We met the owner shortly after we moved to this area at her Whistle Stop restaurant in Baxter TN ( best pizza ever). She told us about Mauricio's. The food was delicious, the setting was perfect and the service was outstanding. Great for a romantic dinner or just any dinner. It is in an old home and the dining is in about 4 different rooms. This made you feel special. We plan to go back for a lunch one day. The lobster bisque caught my eye. A nearby dinner kept commenting how delicious it was. Go you will not be disappointed.

Went here 6/1/17 for lunch on our anniversary. Ordered a bottle of Chardonnay to go with our meal. My wife and I always split a dish since we are not large people. Expect a five dollar additional fee. Ordered the Veal Marsala and received chicken instead. The dish was soupy and the angel hair pasta was drenched. Will not ever come here again! So disappointing!

I'm really sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your dining experience with us. Usually I am informed of a mistake made by the kitchen or by the server but in this case I was not. I would appreciate if you would contact me on my web page, Mauricioscookeville.com so we can have a private conversation in order for me to identify what happened and the person responsible. I would also like to try and make this right with you so you may consider giving us another chance. This is not a typical experience when dining with us as you can see by all the reviews either on trip advisor, yelp, or many other sites. We truly attempt to have all our guests have a wonderful dining experience when you come to Mauricio's Italian Restaurant and although mistakes can and do happen, we are more than happy to fix it on the spot if at all possible. Jeff/Owner

Because of other reviews on this restaurant, we decided to have dinner here. It was wonderful! The restaurant is in an old house and is beautiful inside. The service was excellent, and our food was exceptional. You couldn't ask for anything more.
